Say Her Name by Francisco Goldman

5.0

A brilliant, beautiful book that I read from start-to-finish in just 30 hours. If you knew Aura, this book will make you grateful for Francisco Goldman's ability to bring her back to life on these pages. And if you didn't know her, your heart will ache for her and for Goldman anyway. While Goldman's feelings of loss are palpable, this is not a book that ever falls into self-pity or that plays with the reader's emotions. It is, quite simply, a very vivid portrayal of an incredible woman, the circumstances that fed her creative ambitions and endeavors and of her relationship with Francisco Goldman.
